Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few years, there has been extensive and continuous concern around emerging pollutants such as antibiotics, heavy metals, endocrine disruptors, etc.. Advanced analytical methods have played an important role in the removal of emerging pollutants and in providing assurances for public health. Significant progress has been made in the establishment and optimization of analytical methods for emerging pollutants, which is beneficial for both the accurate analysis and reliable screening of various pollutants and risk factors.
This Special Issue will involve well-drafted reviews that provide an overview of the current progress in advanced analytical methods and analytical procedures, as well as experimental research articles or short communications that utilize novel techniques with advanced nanomaterials or instrumental devices to address specific analytical problems in emerging pollutant analysis.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive overview of the advanced analysis and screening methods for deleterious emerging pollutants, to outline the future development trends of these methods, and to acquaint the scientific community with advanced analytical procedures and approaches, either targeted or non-targeted, i.e., profiling or screening research studies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Separations is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
